A woman is found dead in a ditch. As the list of suspects grows, a town's dirty secrets are revealed. It's a cold winter evening and rain is sweeping in from the Atlantic when a young woman, having braved the weather to visit her sick mother in a remote part of Ireland, comes across an obstacle in the road. She clears the highway of stones from a damaged bridge only to see the body of a woman in a ditch. With no phone reception, she travels to the nearest police station to report what she has found. The local Garda waste no time in attending the scene of the crime. The woman is clearly dead, but it needs proper forensics to establish if foul play was the cause. In the meantime, is it not possible that the woman driver was in fact the culprit? She is clearly not telling the whole truth. A game of cat and mouse ensues when the inquiry is upgraded to a murder investigation. The trouble is, when the victim is recognised as a sex worker, there is no shortage of possible suspects. And few of them, if any, are willing to tell the truth to the police. It will take all of Galway detectives Hays and Lyons' experience to cut through the web of lies and identify the killer in their midst.

Wat is dit verschrikkelijk om naar te luisteren. De voorlezer lijkt een robot. Amper emoties, zinnen lopen in elkaar over alsof er geen punt tussen staat en je kunt soms amper volgen wie wat zegt. Tenenkrommend.
